The Original Muck Boot Company Woody Arctic IceThe new Woody Arctic Ice has been made to excel in icy conditions. The groundbreaking Vibram Arctic Grip on the outsole is the most advanced cold-weather gripping system Vibram has ever created and allows sportsmen to tread on icy terrain with confidence. These 8mm 4-way stretch CR Flex-Foam, fleece-lined boots set the standard in warmth and protective support. The 2mm thermal foam under the foot-bed assures warmth in temperatures that can drop below -60°F or when standing on ice. As with most Muck Boots, a topline binding keeps the snow and cold out, and the warmth inside.

Grundéns Deck-Boss BootThe Deck-Boss Boot is engineered to be durable, tough and comfortable. The 15-inch boot, which is made in the Pacific Northwest, utilizes a rigid toe cap, and the exterior is made in one-piece through injection molding. The outsole combined with Herkules Grip synthetic rubber provides superior traction in wet conditions. The flexible upper folds down when desired and a one-inch groove holds a durable silicone band that can be used to keep pants out of the muck. The Deck-Boss Boot insole is engineered to mimic the bilge space in a boat; it is comprised of two separate decks. The lower deck sits on pilings that create bilge space for liquid to accumulate. There are scuppers around the perimeter of the lower deck to allow liquid to drain into the bilge. In the heel area, liquid accumulation cavities connected by channels allow liquid to evacuate the bilge space by inverting the boot and letting the water drain out through a notch. The outsole is non-marking; each pair weighs 2 pounds, 3½ ounces, and they are available in men’s whole sizes from 3 to 14.
